boss pedals... or mutlieffect processors like the digitech series sound farily well on shitty amps

check out http://www.danelectro.com. The effects pedals from this company are from the 50's and went well with cheap one speaker tube amps. Todays cheap amps are all solid state and don't have that great rock or blues sound.Look to see what you want and if possible go to your local music store and try it out before you buy. I have even taken my guitar and amp in and tried out stuff before i bought.That is the best way to do.Every one has their own taste in effects.I have a ZOOM 50511 and it works for me,there are a lot of effects on it but i only use two or three.I tried a korg but sent it back,diden't meet what i was looking for.The really super tape echo effects will cost a fortune.

hi
tons of guitar sites out there with all sort of tips. www.olga. and others.. use the search engine and look around.

as for strumming tips, i would say, for most generic guitar chord playing, just get used to struming down then up again, down then up again, so its smooth and easy.
metal music is mostly down strokes, anytime you want to emphasize a beat, you can use a down strum.
as for shifting from one chord to another, pick some chords that look sort of similar, and switch from one to the next and back again.
like a C and a G7 chord, they're sort of similar. a D and an A7 are almost similar.. An A minor and an E chord are the same, too.

some songs were written by rock stars, probably by tinkering with chords when they were practicing.
the Batman theme just moves one note within the same basic chord shape.
the beginning of Stairway to Heaven and also Pinball Wizard, they seem to be similar.. same basic chord, but they moved one finger up or down a little bit, and liked it so used that.

I recall that i used to use Em and G and C and D, and make up my own chord patterns when I was starting out, since I didn't have alot of sheet music, but knew a few chords, so tinkered with them a while.
don't get discouraged.
I don't know if this helps. just have to remember it won't sound like anything really good until you do it a bunch of times, and get it memorized in your hands.
nobody sounds smooth and perfect when they learn something new, have to just keep at it a while.
good luck.

: I'm quite a begginer in guitar. I need some help in following aspects;

: Strumming (I know chords of songs to play but somehow I dont seem to figure out strumming and its frustrating)

: Secondly some good way to practice chords specially shifting chords. I suppose best way is to play in diff combos as diff songs but strumming is one thing which makes it impossible

: Anyone can refer me to some good site for this purpose or any tips.

: Thanks

if your an amatuer then don't start out on a 7 string.

You're dead on about learning a 7 string like a 6 string. Unfortunatly there is no known resource about learning on a 7 string. Most people tune the low B one step lower to an A for creature comfort of being able to make bar chords. There is no reason for a guitar playing that low but what the hell, it's modern.

: I just bought a 99' gibson sg standard (ebony) for $800. Did I get a good deal?? PLEASE RESPOND thanks a lot!!

hi,
i would say you paid a decent price. the new "SG standard" goes for about $1200 i think?
ok checked. list is 1,598 for a new Gibson Standard SG. so, lot of stores would have it for sale around ummm 1,000 to 1,400 maybe. of course, If it has a anything really nice or special about it, it would be worth more. (like bigger inlays)
this $1,598 is priced for a standard SG with just the regular dot inlays, and rosewood fingerboard.

Gibsons tend to either retain their value, or appreciate in value, so 800 sounds like a fair price, not a "steal" but not bad deal either, especially if its in real good condition.

one way to think of it is, If you went to sell it, you could get your money's worth out of it, or maybe more, so that's not bad as far as that goes.
And on another train of thought, you can't buy a new one for that.. maybe one of the "faded" ultra plain "SG Specials", but not a Standard SG.
So if you think of it that way.. it's almost a new SG, but over half the price of a new one.
Anyway, be happy, because you got a GREAT guitar!
SGs are really nice guitars, nothing to be ashamed of, they sound great, and play realllllly well.
SGs and Les Pauls feel easier to play than a strat. - shorter scale, great for smaller hands like mine.

This is just my opinion.
